Default 996 turbo cab vs 997 C2S cab

I'm considering buying one of them in future...

Definitely I want cabriolet. Which I concern is performance, daily use, style, insurance, and maintenance. I know 996 turbo is far better in performance but how better is it? Is it noticeable? I'm not a crazy racer but performance is the most important point for my choice.

And which one do you guys recommend?

996tt cab will blow away n/a 997cab any day. Its difference between having a martini or a glass of wine, they both have alcohol in them, but the effects are much more pronounced with the martini. But remember...drink responsibly

As stated above, there is a big difference. If you live and drive only in the heart of a city like New York or Chicago, you really can't use the power of either. In that case, you will think either is "fast". But if you ever drive on open roads, the difference is not subtle. While both are flat 6's, it feels like you've gone form a 6 to 8 cylinder car. AS
